There is nothing for it hut to knit i

an obligation nnd nil that we have to
fchow that our hearts are in the right
place are knitting needles, knitting
bags and such things.
The four hundredth pair of socks
mny ' prove just a little monotonous,
but there are new knitting bags to
ndd the spice of variety to our dally
lives. At the ribbon counters they
nro showing some Immensely clever
oues along with other work bags nnd
"catch-alls." Those who spend their
time thinking of new things In bags
have grown to bo such adepts that
life nt the ribbon counter promises
to become one continual round 1 of
Joyous new bngs from now until the
end of the year. Then unless the
war is over they will begin all over
again with 3010 knitting bags.
A new nrrlvnl that charms every

n little umbrella. It Is made of silk

Silk Street Suits

Some time before the days of mid
summer have really arrived, merchants
assemble stocks of silk street suits,
ready to be presented when the llrst
hot day comes. These midsummer
suits are almost untrlmmed, hut are
carefully designed and distinguished
by smart style-touches and niceties of
finish that place them closo to the
formal suit class.' Clever women
eometlmes take their graceful hut
plain suits and tone them up with a
little effective hand work, but even
without that, they are equal to almost
any demand.
There are many pretty suits of heavy
taffetas and of gros-do-londro In the
displays, Owo of tho new taffeta suits
Is shown In the picture and It could
hardly bo simpler or plainer, but It Is
reinarkably good style. Tho coat opens
to tho bust line, dlfforlng from eurllor
Ptylos which woro open to tho waist
lino. It has n short, flaring skirt por
tion with three plnltfl at each side nnd
n Uttlo dip In front, all vory crisp
and "Mtl. IInt. white pearl but

three scallops at each .end of tho
strip. Then tho handlo is slipped
through u small slide made of the
ribbon and when It Is drawn through
the bag falls In the form of an um
brella. The tassel is sewed at tho'
center of tho circle of silk.
Work bags that will serve for
knitting as well ns other kinds of
work are mado of strips of plain
and brocaded ribbon sewed together
lengthwise like that shown nt tho
right of the umbrella bag. Tho top
is cut In scallops and draws up on
nnrrow satin ribbons thnt run through
u casing sewed along tho base of the
scallops in the plain ribbon. Small
rings sewed at the sides of the bro
caded ribbon are covered with cro
chet silk and tho narrow ribbon hang'
crs pass from the casing through
them.
Below this bag a smaller workbag
Is gathered over large glass rings. It
Is mnde of plnln satin-ribbon Joined
with shlrrlngs over cord nnd llnlshcd

make this suit Irresistibly cool look

In midsummer. White pumps nnd
stockings might he worn with It to
the best advantage.
Among these new silk suits there la
one having a coat with three flounces
set In across the back that Is very
pretty. It has narrow pockets set on
at each side with rows of .small but
tons, and a bolt of tho silk. These
belts, In many silk suits, extend around
the waist In tho most straightforward
and matter-of-fact manner, which Is
another point of ' departure from
stylo In cloth suits. The most popular
colors are navy, taupo and black, but
light colors, ns sand Bray or white
have a daintiness that compensates
for their lining shorter lived.

TEXT For therein Is the righteousness
of God revealed from faith to faith: as
It la written, tho Just shall live by faith.
Romans 1:17. (Road also verse 16.)
Tho Gospel Is not only "tho power
of God unto salvation to every ono
that bclievcth;"
but nlso a revela
tion of that "right
eousness with
which God would
Invest man In or
der that man may
come Into like
ness and unity
with himself,"
nnd a gift to faith
o f something to
live by or up to.

The Medium of
Revelatlpn.
The m o d 1 u m
through which
man recelvcs'God's revelation Is faith.
Man discovers material thtngs through
tho medium of tho senses: sight, hear
ing, touch, taste, smell. Tho whole
world Is open for discoveries to tho
man who possesses Intact his live
senses. Through such mediums, how'
ever, ho cannot discover God. Faith
Is the only medium through which tho
soul discovers tho things of God.
Faith Is the soul sense by which we
"taste and eo that God Is good." Faith
Is the soul senso by which we "seek
tho Lord, If happily wo might feel
after him, nnd find lflm." Thank God
Cor tho touch of faith I Faith is tho
soul senso by which wo see God. Paul
tells us that truth Is spiritually dis
cerned. It Is the eye of faith which
sees God In nature, in providence, In
grace. It Is tho eye of faith which be
holds Christ in his beauty nnd sees the
wonders of his grace.
A righteousness of God Is revealed
"from faith unto faith." Tho gar
ments of righteousness nro fully de
scribed and offered to man in tho Gos
pel. God Is ready to Invest man with
all that his faith will appropriate. The
process Is like learning mathematics,
From problem to problem, from the
simple to the dlfflcult, from tho difficult
to the more dlfflcult, until tho boy has
imparted to him a knowledge of
mathematics up to tho measure of hie
ability to receive. So man Is Invested
with a righteousness of God from
faith unto faith; from the simple to
tho dlfflcult, from tho dlfflcult to the
impossible. '
The Meaning of Revelation.
The righteousness of God revealed
in the Gospel Is 'offered to man's faith
ns something to lay hold of and live up
to. By his faith ha appropriates much
or little. "The just shall live by his
faith." There is no limit in the de
velopment of man's spiritual life and
no limit to his achievement in Chris
tlan service, if only he will exercise
faith. If man has but meager faith
and will live up to It, he wfll acquire
more faith in tho process, and acquir
ing more faith will grow in spiritual
grace and usefulness. The trouble is
most people Hvo up to their doubts
rather than up to their faith.
I was aiding onco in a canvass for
funds to establish a Crlttendon Rescue
Home. Calling up a rich member of
my congregation, I presented the
cause. ITe said : "I doubt if even God
can do much for a fallen woman.
doubt if such a creature Is ever re
claimed. The enterprise docs not np
peal to me." So he declined to make
n contribution. He lived squnrely up
to his doubts.
I called also upon a young business
man of moderate means and presented
the cause, ne replied : "Yes 1 Yes 1 1
will contribute. God only can help
such unfortunate creatures. I believe
that such rescue work Is ono of the
roost Chrlstllko and effectual missions
,of the church." Ho gave $500. He
lived up to his faith.
Knowing of tho waywardness and
moral peril of a young man In my pnr
isli, I called on his mother to nsk help
and prayer In behalf of her son. She
said : "I doubt If ho Is as bad as you
think. I cannot feel that he Is In any
great peril." Sho lived up to her
doubts. No home Influences were re
leased to save him. Loss than a year
later ho was found dead hi a brothel
having died In a" drunken debauch.
Mother's Prayer Is Answered.
Some years ago a great union meet
ing was conducted by Sam Jones nnd
George Stewart In tho city where 1
.was a pastor. One night Mr. Jones
stepped to tho front of tho plntforra
nnu read this telegram : "Temple. Tex.
Pleaso pray for my boy Tom. He Is
In your city n prodigal from God. Am
pouring out my heart In prayer. Will
claim tho victory. (Signed) nis Moth
or." Before Mr. Jones could resume
his sent, a tall young man rose nnd
said, "That is my name, that is ray
mother. Yes, sir, I vtob a terrible sin
nor ; I have broken my mother's heart
and tho henrt of my ppor young wife,
nnd I havo blighted tho Hfo of our Ut
tlo girl. Hut this afternoon about tho
tlmo this messago left Temple, I was
yonder In tho parsonago with tho
preacher, calling upon God for mercy,
and he graciously forgave my sins nnd
saved mo by his grace." Ills mother
lived up to her faith and won her boy
back to God. "Tho Just shall Hvo up
to his faith." By this mcana nlono
can fa)th live and havo Its full fruit

The Old Man's Call to Duty.
J. H. Snowdcn, n retired farmer
and capitalist, told a Seattle reporter
that he Is on bis way back from south
ern California to his old homo at Cal
gary, Can., to go back to tho fields.
Ho supposed that he had earned a
rest for the remainder of his days, but
now sees that he was mistaken. "I
am now fifty-five years of age," he
said, "and have not dono any manual
labor for eight years, but I am going
to hlro out this summer and fall to
help my former neighbors to harvest
their crops. I figure that as long as
I am too old for military duty, I can
help win tho wnr by helping produco
crops." Thousands of Americans as
well as Canadians will sco their patri
otic duty and take similar action be
fore tho war Is over. Tho call to the
colors is by no means confined to men
and youths under thirty-two. Ne
